旅行者Joy, thanks for sharing this story of overcoming fears created by lack of understanding and cultural conditioning. Made me ponder how much hatred is sown by religion and nationalism in ways we don’t even see. Praying for Our cousins in Ramadan. Pondering all that this morning, as I look at your hug pic.
